Last week I blogged about dinner at Palmer's---this week I'm meeting Richard there for drinks. He got so excited about his two minutes of fame from the last blog, that now he thinks he's going to be in every post! Hmm...The Midlife Husbandista...nope.

I'm wearing an incredibly comfy and versatile peasant style maxi dress from Chico's. I have to tell you that I am super impressed with Chico's modern, stylish and wearable clothes! This dress could be worn a million different ways and right into the colder months. Pair it with a leather jacket, poncho, belt it, add boots--the sky's the limit! It's on sale for just $29.99 HERE and also comes in a gorgeous blue.

My husband Richard was SO excited to be included in this photoshoot because it was at one of our favorite restaurants, Palmers, and there was FOOD involved (OK I was pretty excited about the food part too!).

But I was equally as excited to wear my new Laura Tanzer dress. I am always on the lookout for a really fabulous dress--when I spotted this one I knew I had to have it. It's perfect for so many occasions including date night!

The material is out of this world. It has a structure and weight to it, yet it's soft and super comfy....and the print!!! I also love the side slit detail.

I chose these two CZ necklaces to add a touch of bling to this edgy outfit without being "over-done". The necklaces are from Crislu, a 50 year-old company that makes quality luxury jewelry at affordable prices. What makes this company unique is that they stand behind all of their jewelry with a life-time warranty against manufacturing defects--something even a lot of the high-end lines don't offer!

This is how the jewelry came in the mail....even the packaging is beautiful.

First let's talk about this simple but elegant pave necklace in pure platinum. I wear this piece all the time, both solo and layered with other necklaces. The sparkle is incredible, but it only looks expensive.

A cape is one of the easiest pieces you can add to your wardrobe. It's so comfy and cozy and it adds a touch of "chic" to any outfit. I wear my capes all the time in the colder months, whether it be with jeans and boots, over a sweater dress or even on top of a leather jacket when I need a bit more warmth. Here are five beautiful capes, all under $50.00. You don't have to break the bank to look super stylish! Oh, and the best part is they're "one size fits all!".

This plaid cape reminds me a bit of the one I wore in photoshoot last fall (photo below).
